    Veritech, the amount of trimming you have to do varies based upon the offset of the wheels you pick, and even the brand of tires you use. Offset ishow far the wheels are set in from the centerline, so the higher the offset, the less trimming you should have to do. Most wide RWD wheels, unfortunately, have a negative offset, which means they stick out. These wheels have about a -0- offset. Stock wheels are offset +38mm, which means they're inset 1.5". I'll try to get pics soon of how much I had to trim. I'm still rubbing slightly when turning onder compression, though.... so I have a little more to do

    Joe, I still have the offroading wheels. They're about 50% worn (unevenly(, and out of balance, though. No good for road use. The wheels are in good shape, though. They would be great for rallyx, though, because they're pretty light. I had good acceleration with them. If you want them, they're yours for $100.

    Cool! I'll be down your way for the next Homestead rallycross in early August, but can come sooner if that's too long. Maybe we can talk Mercer into a good night out! :bgwg:
